Capcom Reveals Boss Jetman for Rockman: Dual Override at Tokyo Game Show
The stage tied the game's two new systems, Override and Custom Chips, to a concrete payoff: a legacy special weapon like Astro Crush now enters through chip development rather than a single boss defeat, which is the clearest look yet at how Dual Override is restructuring Rockman's usual progression.

A Tokyo Game Show 2026 stage stream for Rockman: Dual Override, set for spring 2027, ended with producer Shingo Izumi revealing the boss Jetman, who switches between flight form and robot form. Gameplay shown had Jetman fighting Blues with missiles and charge attacks that call in fighter planes. Footage also teased Rockman using Astro Crush, which Izumi said appears as a Custom Chip unlocked by defeating Astro Man R.
The reveal came only after a live challenge. Talent Akari Nibu played the early portion of Twinkle Girl's stage, beat the mid-boss Don Pressedon, then faced Twinkle Girl with a condition attached: cut her health to half or less within five minutes and Izumi would show something new.
Nibu cleared it, and Izumi presented Jetman, an enemy who shifts between flight form and robot form. The footage showed Blues under missile and charge attacks that summon fighter planes. A closing clip showed Rockman using Astro Crush.
